Why Net Neutrality Regulation is the Path to Ending Net Neutrality (Hustle Bear)
Let’s bring some perspective here. People have become hysterical. They are DEMANDING Net Neutrality. Now. Right NOW. But, wait a second… they already have it. Right now, we all enjoy a neutral net. It’s here. It exists. It’s alive. And it’s fucking fantastic.

This boot stomps without precision, without emotion, without representation.
My friends, now is a time to stop and reflect. Before we continue fighting, let’s briefly go over this issue so we can understand the perspectives.

It is incredible how much the internet has already changed our lives. And the possibilities for the future are astonishing.
The internet is currently completely unregulated by our government. There’s no government regulating our content, our activity, or our internet connections.
So what is Net Neutrality? And why is it so important?
